I was at Hap Baker on Friday and there was a guy there in an ACU chest rig. I took a look, raised an eyebrow and returned to loving my new Geissele trigger on my AR.
Perhaps a little over the top, but I try not to judge my fellow shooters.
Not gonna knock him. I too have a bunch of tactical gear that I use for airsoft and also keep on hand for TEOTWAWKI. It makes no sense to have all that stuff if you don't shoot with it on to see if what works and what doesnt. Shooting with nothing on is easy, shooting with gear is another thing altogether so if you don't practice as if you were really going to use it than there really is no point in having it.
